COOKIE POLICY
The Website uses cookies when a USER browses the websites and web pages of the Website.
The USER has the option to configure their browser to be notified on screen when cookies are received and to prevent their installation on their hard drive.
Please consult your browser’s instructions and manuals for further information. To use the WEBSITE, it is not necessary for the USER to allow the installation of cookies sent by the website, without prejudice to the fact that in such case the User will need to register as a user for each of the services whose provision requires prior registration.
The use of cookies and other tracking technologies is standardized across all websites and applications through which information about your online activities is collected via applications, websites, social networks, or other services.
Below, we provide more information about how we use cookies and similar technologies and about how you can control and manage cookies.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a file that is downloaded onto your computer when you access certain web pages. Cookies allow a website, among other things, to store and retrieve information about a user’s browsing habits or their device and, depending on the information they contain and how the device is used, they can be used to recognize the user. The user’s browser stores cookies on the hard drive only during the current session, occupying minimal memory space and not harming the computer. Cookies do not contain any specific personal information, and most of them are deleted from the hard drive at the end of the browser session (so-called session cookies).
Most browsers accept cookies as standard and, independently of this, allow or block temporary or stored cookies through the security settings.
2. Why does this Website use cookies?
Cookies are used with the aim of improving your experience as a user; therefore, they are an important part of how our Website functions. Among other purposes, they may be used to remember the language you use during browsing and on future visits.
3. What information does a cookie store?
The cookies used by the website are associated only with an anonymous USER and their computer and do not themselves provide the USER’s first and last name. Thanks to cookies, it is possible to recognize registered USERS once they have registered for the first time, without having to register on each visit to access areas and services reserved exclusively for them. The cookies used cannot read data from your hard drive or read cookie files created by other providers. The identifying data of the USER is encrypted for greater security.
Likewise, our web servers automatically detect the IP address and the domain name used by the user. All this information is recorded in a server activity log file that allows subsequent data processing in order to obtain statistical measurements that help us know the number of page impressions, the number of visits made to our web services, etc.
